  13. Raider Rewards Purpose: The goal is to create an environment based on positive behavior. Summary: To accomplish our goal, we are creating Community Point System. Students will earn and lose “Raider Rewards” (RR) based on their behavior and accomplishments. They will have the opportunity to participate in Community events and purchase privileges based on their Raider Rewards. There will be a method for teachers to track and update students. Teachers give students points daily through the computerized tracking system. Points will be posted weekly so students can then see what RR trips/activities/privileges they are eligible for. Earning Points: All students will earn 5 Raider Rewards each week. When students earn additional points, they will be added by the teacher in the computerized tracking system. Students Can also earn points by helping a teacher, following directions, etc. at adult discretion. Losing Points: Students lose points through infractions, detentions, suspensions and being unprepared for class. This is all captured in Connect. Eligibility/Spending:Students will be eligible for Monthly Community Activities and the End of Year trip, but they can also spend points for other privileges.
